The wifi is so fast and the career service is also great which they always have something to offer in every week, whether it is a workshop, a talk show or a career day. For societies and clubs I can’t really tell because I am not participating in any of those yet. read more

Edinburgh Uni is known for its beautiful campus, being located at the heart of the city. While there definitely are a variety of libraries and other study spaces available for students, it is important to know that the quality of facilities depends on your school, as some have much more space and better study space availability than others. The quality of the faculty is great, and there is a vast variety of course and degree options, which really lets you make the most of your studies. Student accommodation is good, but after your first year you will no longer be guaranteed a place, and finding a private flat in Edinburgh can be quite challenging. There are always many events and society meet ups you can attend, and they are definitely a great way of meeting lovely people! read more

Overall, I love my study experience at the University of Edinburgh. However, the downsides are that it was super expensive to join sports clubs (especially if I don't plan on participating frequently) and the events organised by the students union do not particularly cater to students who do not attend parties. read more

I just have to say how much I love living at Gateway Apartment. The location is perfect—just a quick walk to campus makes it super easy to get to class or grab a coffee with friends. Plus, there are plenty of grocery stores and parks nearby, which is a big plus for daily life. The apartment itself is really nice. I’ve got a spacious room with lots of natural light and a kitchen that’s great for cooking. The common areas, like the lounge and study rooms, are perfect for hanging out or getting some work done with roommates. What really sets Gateway apart is the community vibe. The management team is friendly and always ready to help out if you need anything. They also organize events that bring everyone together, which has helped me make a lot of great friends. I also feel safe here, thanks to the secure access and good security measures. Overall, living at Gateway has been a fantastic experience, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay while studying. read more

The location is convenient and there are many supermarkets nearby. It is also close to Moray House School. The environment is clean and tidy, with wooden floors instead of carpets, which makes it easy to clean. It is also friendly to people with allergies. The heating and hot water are sufficient, so you won't get cold. Highly recommended! If there were more washing machines, it would be even better! read more

The apartment is very nice and quiet. The neighborhood is convenient for transportation and shopping. It's a ten-minute walk to Princes Street. The front desk of the apartment is very friendly and often organizes events and parties with free breakfast, pizza and more. It is also very convenient to sign for express delivery, and the front desk staff will help to put several express deliveries of the same person into categories and put them away, which is very convenient for me to find. read more
